What is the default SNMP timeout used by Software Management? Can I configure it?
A. Software Management makes three attempts to connect to the device using SNMP. The first retry timeout interval of 10 seconds is not configurable. Subsequent retry timeout intervals are configurable and are based on the value in the slow timeout variable. To verify the timeout value, select Admin > Essentials > System Configuration. If the initial attempt to connect to the device fails, Software Management waits three minutes before it attempts to connect again. The three minute wait enables routing protocol or spanning tree convergence to occur, which could have been initiated because another device was rebooted during the software upgrade. The number of retries is not configurable. The underlying Software Management stack also tries three times to connect to the device. All the secondary addresses configured in DNS for the device are tried during each attempt.
